The goal is to have community leader participating in our design discussions and decisions. It has happened already for a couple of RFCs (accepted and rejected) and went very well. The FUDs about core devs, legacy developers and the like loosing control about the direction PHP takes has been killed, it did not happen and it is very unlikely that it will happen. How do the community leaders come in? They are usually very well known and already participate to php in one way or another (bugs report, testing, etc.) and are part of a known OSS project (we have drupal, zf, symfony already for example). Having a couple of devs to second their addition is also requested. This has been said many times already in the past and it is said in the RFC as well. We do not need over killed process as an attempt to make php more closed to our communities. Cheers, -- Pierre @pierrejoye | http://blog.thepimp.net | http://www.libgd.org
